And PSG would also consider a cash-only deal for Italy international Verratti.

But the French champions have chanced their arm by enquiring about the availability of France midfielder Pogba.

Reports in Italy stated Verratti was on the verge of signing a new deal.

That PSG renewal would have pocketed him £9m-a-year.

But other sources claim PSG would still consider moving him on – especially if they could bring in a marquee signing like Pogba as part of the deal.

Meanwhile United seem, for the moment at least, to be pricing Anthony Martial out of a move to Tottenham.

It is understood that Spurs made initial contact about signing Martial.

But they were not interested in doing business at the price currently being quoted by United.
